FAQ
- Q: How do I create a page?
Search for desired page name and press the central red link
- Q: How do I upload pictures?
There is an 'upload file' link in the left sidebar under 'Tools'. Try to have your filename contain keywords: Files can then be easily searched using Special:ListFiles or Special:NewFiles
- Q: How do I format my page?
Click the help button in editor toolbar to see basic syntax of links and formatting. Use {{Template:Civilization}} for a basic template. For examples and inspiration find a page in the Model or Good Pages section and press edit in the top right. Copy the item you want and surrounding brackets: i.e. {{infobox ... }}. Additionally, when creating info boxes try to keep consistent with categories and order of other info boxes. Some specific formatting examples can be found in Editing guide#tips
- Q: Im still confused.
Join https://discord.gg/H74bEUp and ask for clarification or use a discussion page (Found in top left)
- Of course while well formatted pages are best, if you are struggling a sentence or two edit is much better than nothing!
Editor Piorities
- Contributing to an existing or creating a wanted nation page is always first priority: If you have done all you can for nation pages:
- Create good templates - particularly an easy to use Nation creation template
- Determine how to make an accurate Somber War page: This is one of the most significant pages yet also most likely to contain controversial differing opinions. Possibly a basic timeline with references should be created first.
- Help improve the editing page and this summary - What are readers confused about, in what areas do editing guidelines need work?
- Merge the all new player guides into a single cohesive page and a summary in Getting Started
- Fix small common mistakes: Pages that lack a category, pages without ccmap link and small formatting errors. To find these new pages use Special:NewPages.
- Place small icons next to nation names so list such as the Good pages sections are easier to skim
- Eventually create a Category:Model articles & Category:Good articles and find a way to autolist pages in said categories in the Welcome to the Civclassic Wiki#Explore section
- If you are unsure something merits an edit use the discussion tab
